Shalom Center is a holistic treatment and renewal center for clergy and men and women religious. Our dedi-cated professional staff addresses the spiritual, psychological, physical, intellectual and vocational dimen-sions of the person.       

Our multidisciplinary approach to health and healing is deeply rooted
in the context of a Catholic faith community. This sacred journey is designed to enable individuals to return to their ministry more “fully human, fully alive.”     

The objective of the assessment process is to assist a person in self-understanding as well as to identify problematic issues that need to be addressed to enable a person to minister more effectively.     

Our assessment includes: clinical interviews; a battery of psychological tests; psychosocial, spiritual, ministry and addiction profiles; and when indicated, psychiatric assessment, neuropsychological testing and physical examination. Specialized testing can be done if needed, depending on each person’s needs and circumstances. All services are available in English and Spanish.
   
Assessments at Shalom Center generally take seven to ten days and include some brief counseling and intervention strategies. At the conclusion of the assessment, the residents receive feedback regarding identified concerns and recommen-dations for treatment or follow-up. With the resident’s permission, the referring contact participates in an oral conference to review the assessment results. A comprehensive writtenreport is also provided to the resident and, whenauthorized, to the referring contact.
